To use as a library, just pull in from

Example apps showing the use of Scala.js with Flot
The bindings for Flot are under core com.felstar.scalajs.flot
To get started, run sbt ~example/fastOptJS
in this root.
Obviously you need to have SBT installed.
This should download dependencies and prepare the relevant javascript files. It then kicks off a web server to serve the html and JS files. The example files are under example.
If you open localhost:12345/example/target/scala-2.11/classes/flot1-dev.html in your browser, it will show you a sample app, drawing 2 graphs. Do open the Console to see debug messages. There are also 2 other code samples.
If you change your source HTML (inside /example/src/main/resources
) or Scala (inside example/src/main/scala/example
), sbt will recompile as needed.
You then just have to refresh the page to see the new version. Hopefully having an example application will make it clearer on how to use Flot from Scala, i.e. monkey see, monkey do.
Run sbt fullOptJS
for an optimized version
of the final application, useful for final publication. You may well need to copy over XXX-dev.html
to get your latest changes. Be sure to refer to the correct JS as well, as it will have a different name than the fast compiled version. e.g.
<script type="text/javascript" src="../scala-js-flot-js-example-opt.js"></script>
If you want to edit in Eclipse (can't compile yet, but still very useful having full IDE with code completion), just run sbt eclipse
the open the generated .project file inside eclipse. Keep sbt running in order to do the JS Compile. https://github.com/typesafehub/sbteclipse/wiki
This is just a quick proof of concept and some bindings for those wanting to use Flot from Scala.js. Feel free to get in contact with any issues etc.
